“Low Altitude Flight”
Today’s post features a few more previously unpublished images of wintering Bald Eagles along the Mississippi River, near Davenport, Iowa. While photographing the eagles fishing in the river, the eagles sometimes fly low over the banks of the river, offering the great joy of capturing images of them low and close to where I was […]

Weather, or Not

Unforgettable Adventure
Today’s post features a group of Mountain Goats that I encountered while hiking around Mount Evans, Colorado, a few years ago. As I hiked over the rocky terrain, taking in the glorious scenery, I noticed a group of Mountain Goats that were heading towards me. I decided to find a nice, flat rock to sit […]

Perched in the Wildflowers
Today’s post features an image I captured on one of my last photo trips to Minnesota. While driving the Sherburne NWR, I came across a nice patch of wildflowers that was very busy with pollinators and other insects. This nice red dragonfly captured my attention as it’s red body contrasted nicely with the yellows of […]

The Green Deal
Today’s post features a night photograph I captured over northeast Wyoming’s Devil’s Tower a few years ago. The green, mist-like sky is called “Green Airglow” (there also appears to be a small amount of red airglow). This airglow phenomenon was identified in 1868 by Swedish physicist Anders Angstrom, and scientists say is caused by photochemical […]

Today’s post comes from one of my many visits to the Lee Metcalf NWR in southwest Montana. Not far from Missoula, the refuge is nestled at the foot of the mountains.
